I got into a small civilized spat about the 2 race-hate brits who are seeking political asylum in the US.  Surprisingly civilized, given that the people involved are clearly racist.

But I started to feel cornered, as if I was somehow attacking free speech.  So I went to the Liberty website, where I found this excellent quote:

"It is when people assert the rights of others, not just themselves, that the cause of fundamental rights and freedoms is best advanced." – Shami Chakrabarti
